Black Friday 2011 Thread: Newest Online Deals: Vanquish PS3 $5.50 At Best Buy

No. They will "price match" by matching certain deals as Gold Box promotions, but if they're the really good deals, they're literally dead within 1 second of going gold. The demand is high and the quantities low. Complete luck to be able to get in on them.
 
So Wal-Mart will definitely price match on Friday if you have other stores' BF ads with you?

I'll likely be trying for that blue Wii, so I'd love to bring in a Best Buy ad and grab Ass Revelations as well, two stones one bird and such

Yeah. I created a thread earlier so people would be aware it had gone live.

It should be noted, you don't have to be a member. You can pay a 10 percent fee and still get it for 219.99. That's a very good deal since Best Buy is going to be for campers only.

10 PM CST (12 hours)


Trying to get an answer out of Best Buy on their facebook page to see if the xbox will be available online, they've been real good about answering questions. The only problem is it appears they're not announcing the time the online deal starts even though someone that works for them answered me on twitter saying it started at midnight. Sigh.

Edit: And confirmed XBox deal available online at Best Buy.
 
Looks like Sam's Club will have three deals (video game-related) tonight on their website starting at 11pm ET/10pm CT:

Very nice, thanks for the info.
 
So stupid, Best Buy is refusing to give a time for the online deals to start. So basically unless they announce something have to stay up all night. Nice.

Very lame. I'm assuming I can follow their twitter account(s) to see when these go live? Or is there a good Black Friday dedicated twitter account for electronics?

I'm just following their twitter and facebook page, also have the 360 bundle favorited and up in another window just in case they accidentally release it early :).

3 different employees. Perhaps they should work on some coordination.
 
If I just swing by my local Best Buy in the afternoon on Friday what are the chances I'll be able to get AC:Rev for $35? Do you think it will sell out really early?
 
http://www.barnesandnoble.com/p/pla...53?ean=711719984382&workid=search/product.asp

Barnes and Noble has the 320GB Uncharted 3 bundle for 209.99 after coupon. Use coupon code: E7U4N9X

Barnes & Noble isn't the most reliable e-tailer and there's a real chance this could get voided and canceled.

Newegg will be having the 360 25OGB Holiday Bundle (Halo and Fable) for 199.99 tomorrow. No word when it goes live exactly.

I think your chance will be very slim to none. By the afternoon, BB will have been open for say 14 hours if you go by 2pm. If you go at maybe 6am, you might still have a shot. Go at 2 am after the lines are gone and you'll probably have a good shot.

bummer about the lack of time though.


Newegg with the save :O
 
do we know anywhere that the kinect sensor for $100 deal will be online?

what's the standard operating procedure for amazon friday sales? still gold box/lightning deals over the course of the day?
 
Just was at Best Buy, the rows of black plastic wrapped pallets are just there..waiting...waiting to ruin thanksgiving dinner.

So now that Black Friday, is Black Thursday, when does it become Black Wednesday?
 
Im gonna be flying home to Las Vegas for Thanksgiving, but I live in Michigan. If I line up for that $200 TV at Best Buy,would they ship it to a store in Michigan so I could pick it up there? If not, how much do you guys think shipping would cost for a TV of that size from Vegas to Michigan?

Worst lightning deals ever.

Hopefully, Cheapy posts that full BF list soon. Amazon has been full of fail so far on the gaming side.

The only decent day so far has been Monday, everything else has been positively mediocre - but the shovelware as lightning deals just hurts.

Isn't this like ultra buggy? If not I guess I'll pick it up to just have it whenever I actually get around to playing Fallout 3 after I tire of Skyrim (lol).
Click to expand...
Not ultra buggy or at least not when the game first came out. It's a good price, but you might want to wait for when the complete edition comes out since it has all the dlc on it.

I just bought it because $8 isn't too much money, I'll just pretend the DLC doesn't exist, or if the game really gets me going I'll buy it sometime down the road. I have the GOTY edition for FO3 and have maybe spent a total of 2 hours playing :(
 
Thanks to all the people that have been tracking the online deals and letting us know!

So to confirm, the $200 360 Bundle will be available at:

Best Buy (in store 12AM, online time unknown)
NewEgg (online time unknown)
Sam's Club (in store time unknown, online time unknown)

Have I missed anything? I'd really like to get this deal.

The online ship may have sailed on that one. When I posted the thread this morning, you could actually add it to your cart and check out. Got shut down fairly quickly, but it's unknown if it's because it was a timing error or it's OOS.
 
Amazon needs to match the WM offer and produce a $199 Kinect bundle with $50 gift card please. I haven't wanted a Kinect until now (I like the dashboard integration.)

10 PM CST for Sam's Club assuming the error earlier didn't wipe out their stock.
